"The sweeping story of a powerful love born in the crucible of war and duty. I couldn't put it down!" ~Alexis Morgan, author of My Lady Mage, book 1 of the Warriors of the Mist

The artifacts were legendary--the sword of Charlemagne and the Holy Grail. And now they were gone, stolen by those who hoped to use their mystical powers to destroy Scotland.

Sensuous as sin and wild as the Highlands, Sir Simon Lockhart must reclaim the treasure while protecting his fellow Templars against a madman who wants to wipe out the order and guarding his heart against a red-haired beauty whose greatest wish is to run headlong into danger.

Brianna St. Clair had trained nearly her whole life to be a knight and is haunted by premonitions of a terrible battle. It's these very visions that Simon hopes will lead them to the treasure and the traitor. But while Brianna can wield a sword as well as any man, she has no defense against the seductive pull of... A Knight to Desire.

It has been quite a while since I've last read a historic romance and this was the perfect novel to bring me back to my first love.As a teenager not into sports and with too much time on her hands I picked up my mother's novels. They were all from different authors from different genres. From the earliest historic novel I read I remember the same feelings I experienced today.I was blown away by the stunning world created by words. The difficulty of such a task leaves me feeling happy. The story was beautiful. It was brave, courageous, humbling, and above all an adventure! I adored every second I read this novel. A little mystery, a little fiction, a little history, a lot of action.Five Stars across the board from me and two thumbs way up!

This series by Ms. Russell is really fascinating. It's also a bit gory and "dark", but that's an accurate portrayal of the times during which the Templars lived. It is less about the Templars because it takes place after they've been disbanded and are being pursued by those hell-bent on killing them for their treasures and secrets. These ARE "romance" novels but they're not page after page of sex. There actually IS a story line and it's excellent.

Gerri Russell does not disappoint! Simon was a perfect hero, strong, and handsome. He meets his match in Brianna who is also strong and dedicated to the Templars. Together they fight the evil de la Roche and attempt to get back the Grail and Joyuse sword. Sweet believable romance with plenty of adventure! A page turner!

It really wasn't much of a story in this book. There's a lot of dialogue and repeated dialogue of the story being told over and over again. I was not mesmerized​ nor was it a page-turner. I got this book for free, so I decided to finish it as quickly as I could skimming through the pages realizing there really wasn't much of a story to tell. I wanted it to be a better story because the premise is great.

4.5 stars. Very entertaining. The characters were extremely likable. Enough details to satisfy, not so much to drag down the pace or become annoying. Some of the dialogue was contemporary, though that happened infrequently enough that it never detracted from the story. (At least for me.) Will probably look for more from this author.

This is a excellent tale about a lady who wasn't meant to be the normal for that time. Having been a tomboy as a child myself, I enjoyed the story where she got to live out her dreams. Sensual loving, adventure, rotten villains and sword fighting were wonderful parts of this fast paced love story.
